Sony posts an ad presenting an upside-down PS5, deletes it later
Sony posted a video featuring the upcoming PS5 on its official Twitter account, but deleted the video after realizing its slip.
This slip happened soon after Sony was set to air a State of Play showcase about upcoming PS5 games, which starts at 5pm ET on Thursday.
The signature strategy used by Sony to market its console, is if it is on its side, it means the disc drive is on the bottom. This time though, it seems even Sony was confused as it posted a video of the console lying down, with the disc drive on top.
Sony deleted the video right after it figured the blunder. Luckily, though, a Reddit user had saved a screenshot of the new PS5 and the way it appeared in the ad.
In December, Vice President of PlayStation Studios HermenHulst made the same mistake when he tweed a video with an upside-down PS5, then deleted it and re-uploaded it with the PS5 cropped out.
